Is the builtin blocker enabled in opera ?
Re: quora.com

I tried with and without built in blocker, no effect, no possibility to create personnal list. I hate opera, too difficult to block ads.
Re: quora.com

use chrome (however I can see the ads only in firefox)
use the second filter for opera
(or be sure when copy the filter there are 2 spaces between

I confirm opera is worst browser I ever seen, but in chrome I had more difficult to block ads than Firefox, a reason to switch between chrome to opera but I regret now my choice. This is also a reason for opera isn't a first borwser used in the world.

I used this second filter but I use your two filters in same time, it's works. 
OPERA
There are another hidden ads "promoted by" I try use this filter for ubo on opera (for test)
Problem, it hide this ad but with all answers under questions.
PS: There are more viscious disguised ads with only "By", to make blocking filters more difficult to create

Quora has changed his strategy to annoy adblock users, I don't see any answers, blocked by this filters but I see An ad:
Screenshot (Tested on chrome, firefos and opera, with ubo and next with adblock plus) https://image.ibb.co/estDCT/QUORA_SUCKS.png
I think quora team see this forum, I hate to being forced to see his ads, very bad strategy and I love the strategy of DuckDuckGo serarh engine, for example, with a preference choice to see or not see his ads and permit to give a don (if you would).

@GamOfCatAndOfMouse This is a rare occurence where @intense 's filter is hiding the answers. Doesn't happen on any pages I browsed with answers.
adding shows the answers again.

@-Mark- Thanks you very much (and Intense, other helpful members and community) for your help.
Your filters not working with "has test" but working with: "-abp- contains":
I can get rid, for this moment, with also @Intense filters, against "Ad by" and "Promoted by" ads, but I don't get rid for ads with only "By" xyz
I tested this diy filter but all ads reaparred:

Quora has started showing text based ads. Between the title and the first answer, there is an ad by DuckDuckgo.
Sample link:
Those ads seem to use randomized element names so normal hide element by name might not work. How to block it on all subpages of Quora?
